The action that sets this movie going is this: A woman politely turns down a gift from a man. He continues to harass her for several minutes as she keeps politely deflecting him. He then gets so far into her personal space that when she turns around, he gets knocked over. Somehow, no one has a problem with the harassment. In fact, the woman is considered a bad person because the man lives Christmas, and she prefers not to celebrate it. Her boss even has a staff meeting where, in front of co-workers, she also acts like politely preferring not to celebrate means the woman is bad. No one even thinks to defend the woman and say, "The man was harassing her-- shouldn't we do something about that?" How is this a feel-good movie? The woman has to spend the rest of the plot atoning for being harassed?
Just saw this movie and we live in North Dakota. There would be no way people would be walking around with unzipped coats or lighter clothing. The license plates were correct and the GPS map she was using was also correct, just way colder than the movie portrayed. Also, not all that many trees in North Dakota. I liked the story, but mostly just liked that fact that it took place in North Dakota. Wish it would have been filmed here.
BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 300 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.

The town in called "Hollyvale" Here she do news stories about this town and how the town is crazy about "Christmas". So she does daily stories from "Hollyvale"
Coming with her is her ex-boyfriend who also happens to be her boss.
The acting is fine. Christmas Movie fans will love this film.

Why would anyone ever let Colin Ferguson go? The guy has been handsome since before 1990, with barely a change at all and not just his face and body, but the personality that shines from him. I would bet a lot of money that he's a really nice guy. So, I'm not sure that the lead female deserves him.
It's actually not a bad romantic story at all and I like the other "story" that the journalists are chasing.
The mayor is over the top, but aren't they always. It's as if they find the weirdest extra in the bunch, give them a suit, a wig and a script and let them loose.
Although it's essentially about the leads disdain for Christmas, it doesn't really have many festivities going on, but there's enough to make it cheery and enjoyable.
I'm fairly shallow, so it probably scores higher because of Colin, but I don't care.
6ish/10?

I love a good Christmas movie, this was a little dull and obviously predictable.
So what the main character isn't into Christmas, seems to be very shocking to everyone, wonder what I'm missing?
